What the fuck? Why is this so difficult for me? I'm trying to put up a pic from my "mypictures" folder... First it told me that the file was too large, so I resized it and saved it and now it tells me that I have an invalid file type! What do I need to do to put in a damned avatar?
what kind of file format is it saved as

How many pixels by how many pixels is it? What size? Post it to photbucket and link it here so we can see.

It's now down to 26X41 pixels. It's tiny. I don't feel like messing with photobucket, I just want to know how to get it in to be my avatar...

I'm giving up on the avatar.

Try the little paperclip in the advanced posting area, should let you add an attachment.

For some reason, the attachments option isn't working for me. Forget it. Thanks for the help. I'll keep dicking around until I get it to work.

First of all, .bmps aren't compatible with this forum, they never were, not even before the stupid upgrades...
Second...The attachment option no longer works, since the stupid upgrades...

You just link them from a place like Photobucket, I don't see what the big deal is.

While we're on this topic, the avatar filesize limit seriously needs to be increased. Never gonna happen, I know, but I felt like bitching about it.
